Purpose: Albertans are invited to provide feedback on a proposed land exchange between Bow Valley Wildland Provincial Park and Silvertip Golf Course.

The Government of Alberta requires a small portion of land (0.135 hectares) from Silvertip Golf Course to protect an important wildlife corridor along a park trail. Protecting this wildlife corridor is a priority to the Alberta government, Silvertip Golf Course and the community. In turn, Silvertip Golf Course has requested a small portion of land (0.045 hectares) from the wildland provincial park to be able to reroute a golf cart path for safety reasons.  The proposed land exchange is considered to be mutually beneficial to Bow Valley Wildland Provincial Park and Silvertip Golf Course, as well as park visitors and golfers.

Albertans are invited to review the proposal and comment online at http://www.tpr.alberta.ca/ by clicking on Parks and Public Consultation.  Comments will also be accepted by mail at:

2nd floor, Oxbridge Place
9820 - 106 Street
Edmonton, Alberta T5K 2J6

Feedback must be submitted by February 4, 2010. A decision regarding the proposal will be made after the 60-day public consultation period is over and all comments have been considered.
